Balloch, Highland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Balloch(Pronounced bə-'lox), (Scottish Gaelic: Bealach) is a residential area of the city of Inverness, Scotland.
Balloch is a village but is under threat of merging with Culloden because of new housing. Many children living in the area attend Culloden Academy. Balloch also has a local shop which is currently having an extension constructed. There is a village hall, a bowling club, a village trust and a community council.
Like Culloden, Balloch is a village of some antiquity. Smithton and Westhill are post-war housing developments. Note possible confusion with Balloch ('bæ:-ləx) in West Dunbartonshire or Balloch in Cumbernauld.
